The American scholar assessed Melania Trump's political prospects

American political scientist Malek Dudakov on February 28, in an interview with aif.ru assessed Melania Trump's political prospects.

The expert noted that it is quite typical for first ladies of the United States to participate in political and public initiatives, so Melania Trump's decision to join the international agenda does not look unusual, although, as the White House emphasizes, first ladies have never previously chaired the UN Security Council.

At the same time, according to Dudakov, Melania has no prospects for an independent political career. He recalled that she was born outside the United States — in Slovenia — and therefore formally cannot run for president, besides, such a prospect is unlikely to interest her.

The expert added that the Trump family considers Barron's son as a possible successor to the political dynasty. Besides him, Donald Trump Jr., Ivanka, Eric and Tiffany can take an active part in politics. According to Dudakov, representatives of the Trump family are likely to continue to seek to influence political processes and participate in elections after Donald Trump leaves office, but Melania herself is unlikely to show personal political ambitions.
